Fernandinho

If Javi Garcia had actually turned out to be worth the 16 million we paid for him, we'd have such a boss midfield.

They actually seemed to have a good understanding yesterday. Note: Yes, Garcia can be upgraded. Fact is that's a while away if at all.

I still have high hopes for him. He's just been played out of position too much and doesnt get enough games.
IMO for smaller games, it should be Garcia and Fernandinho. Yaya to the bench for small games as I think he's a big game player. Best to save him for those.

Yep agree with you both. I wanted to give Garcia the benefit of doubt last season but I now 100% believe that he needs to be off-loaded this January. As you state we are some time away from that and have to put a run of results together now.

I for one would have preferred Milner in that midfield yesterday instead of garcia - and at a push maybe try one of our EDS prospects to gain a little first team experience in Yaya's & Fernadinho's company. The only other alternative if a fully fit Rodwell but that is clutching at straws unfortunately

I think yesterdays set up was perfect for big away games. Don't think Garcia did that bad personally, he looked ok in that 3 man midfield.

I think that's too many midfielders getting too far forward at the same time against a counterattacking club like Chelsea, but you might very well be right.

He was immense yesterday, he bossed that midfield and like Silva and Aguero didn't deserve to be on the end of such a heartbreaking fuck up at the end. He's won me over big time the last few games.

Very similar to Ramires at our place, their work rate is incredible and in time even the doubters will recognise what a critical part of the team he will be. Technically sound, great pace, and an outstanding engine.

Looking like he's settled very quickly and was excellent yesterday, improving with each game, class player.

 

[01cravend]

He is quality....Just needs to gain a few kilos so he doesn't keep bouncing off players when trying to tackle them aha

I really like his ability to abuse opposition players without making a foul. He is all over them, but doesn't do enough to make ref blow a whistle.

Quality player, if he continues like this he might earn World Cup place in Brazil.
